Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great fun. A little expensive, paying per person - would be good if it was cost per experience. Some of the props need some maintenance (wash the costumes!), replace some of the paper clues. Overall not unhappy. An hour from start to finish.

Burlesque was immersive and layered. My first escape room. It felt as though we were detectives in the 1920s and each part of the story emerged at the right time. We were blown away really. Will be back to try another.
Only thing is, please always provide pen and paper waivers, we don't use QR codes, but the staff did find a paper form.
Overall, we had a blast.

We took park in a group of 6 as an after work event. Two members had done the Burlesque and Amnesia rooms, so on this occasion we were in the Clockworks room. This was my first time at EscapeXperience. Really loved solving the well thought out clues, and getting out on time :) Definitely will return to have a go at the other rooms!

Almost a dollar a minute for an overwhelmingly mediocre experience. Not worth the cost at all - there are plenty of other escape rooms where they've at least bothered to put in minimal effort.
Staff were nice but deeply unenthused.
A few of the puzzles were interesting, but staff solved one for us before we asked. Overall the unsatisfying story lacked engagement and left it feeling incomplete.
It would have been a fantastic day at a lower price, but charging 50 dollars per person for a low-end and disappointing experience is kind of ridiculous.
I will not be returning and will recommend friends to try another place.

We experienced the Clockworks room. Staff were very helpful and friendly and gave us every opportunity to solve all the puzzles ourselves. We did eventually solve the puzzles using a little extra time. Great time was had by all. Highly recommend this as something different to do on a Saturday evening :)

We did Amnesia as a family of four, our kids are 10 and 16 . We all loved it and found that there was plenty for all of us to do. The hosts were fantastic and gave us a gentle nudge when we needed it to keep moving forward. The puzzles were challenging and fun. The kids loved it so much they are desperate to go back and do another one! We will definitely be back to try the other 2 rooms.

If you are used to escape room (and are an adult) there is no doubt you will like this. The rooms are very well done and multiple challenges await in just the one room. I was in the room which contained the scientists. Sorry not sure what it is called. I just found it way too difficult. Even the escape room expert I was with who has done over a dozen of these rooms said it was one of her hardest and really only people who have done these rooms before will be able to logically solve the puzzle.
But…..if you e are good at these, then perhaps choose this one. I’m sure you will enjoy it. For kids with no experience though……nah.

We struggle to get our teenagers interested in family activities so for my husbands birthday this proved to be a great activity we could enjoy together as a family. The Burlesque room was challenging and kept us totally engaged and entertained. The host was really helpful and it was well run and organised. Highly recommend.

I never leave reviews for things, ever. Nathan, buddy, your commitment to the narrative made our night. Your customer service skills were on point and the only reason why I'm going out of my way to review. And why we'll be going again very soon (with a quick call to make sure Nathan's rostered on for the night). Stellar hiring by the company. Really fun and enjoyable night out for all of us.

My first ever experience of an escape room. The four of us were all newbies. We worked as a team and although we didn’t finish the room reckon we did reasonably well. Nathan was lovely as with the harder puzzles we needed asome hints. We all enjoyed ourselves immensely and plan to be back.

Hey!
I wanted to ask if you are open on the night of June 20th and what time do you close. Also, what are the prices for students for the escape room(s) and if there are group packages.
Thanks!!!
